Acceptable paper and
other print media 2
Print quality may vary according to the type of
paper you are using.
You can use the following types of print
media: plain paper, thin paper, thick paper,
thicker paper, bond paper, recycled paper,
labels or envelopes.
For best results, follow the instructions below:
DO NOT put different types of paper in the
paper tray at the same time because it
may cause paper jams or misfeeds.
For correct printing, you must choose the
same paper size from your software
application as the paper in the tray.
Avoid touching the printed surface of the
paper immediately after printing.
Before you buy a lot of paper, test a small
quantity to make sure the paper is
suitable.
Use labels that are designed for use in
laser machines.
Recommended paper and

Handling and using special
paper 2
The machine is designed to work well with
most types of xerographic and bond paper.
However, some paper variables may have an
effect on print quality or handling reliability.
Always test samples of paper before
purchasing to ensure desirable performance.
Store paper in its original packaging and keep
it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from
moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Some important guidelines when selecting
paper are:
DO NOT use inkjet paper because it may
cause a paper jam or damage your
machine.
Preprinted paper must use ink that can
withstand the temperature of the
machine’s fusing process 200 C.
If you use bond paper, paper having a
rough surface, or paper that is wrinkled or
creased, the paper may exhibit degraded
performance.
Types of paper to avoid 2
Important
Some types of paper may not perform well
or may cause damage to your machine.
DO NOT use paper:
• that is highly textured
• that is extremely smooth or shiny
• that is curled or warped
1 A curl of 2 mm or greater may cause
jams to occur.
• that is coated or has a chemical finish
• that is damaged, creased or folded
• that exceeds the recommended weight
specification in this guide
• with tabs and staples
• with letterheads using low temperature
dyes or thermography
• that is multipart or carbonless
• that is designed for inkjet printing
The types of paper listed above may
damage your machine. This damage is
not covered under any Brother warranty or
service agreement.

Envelopes 2
Most envelopes designed for laser printers
will be suitable for your machine. However,
some envelopes may have feed and print-
quality problems because of the way they
have been made. A suitable envelope should
have edges with straight, well-creased folds.
The envelope should lie flat and not be of
baggy or flimsy construction. You should buy
quality envelopes from a supplier who
understands that you will be using the
envelopes in a laser machine.
Envelopes can only be fed through the MP
tray.
We recommend that you print a test envelope
to make sure the print results are what you
want.
Types of envelopes to avoid 2
Important
DO NOT use envelopes:
• that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or
an unusual shape
• that are extremely shiny or textured
• with clasps, staples, snaps or tie
strings
• with self-adhesive closures
• that are of a baggy construction
• that are not sharply creased
• that are embossed (have raised writing
on them)
• that were previously printed by a laser
machine
• that are pre-printed on the inside
• that cannot be arranged neatly when
stacked
• that are made of paper that weighs
more than the paper weight
specifications for the machine
• with edges that are not straight or
consistently square
• with windows, holes, cut-outs or
perforations
• with glue on the surface as shown in
the figure below
• with double flaps as shown in the figure
below
• with sealing flaps that are not folded
down when purchased
• with each side folded as shown in the
figure below
If you use any of the types of envelopes
listed above, they may damage your
machine. This damage may not be
covered under any Brother warranty or
service agreement.
Occasionally you may experience paper
feed problems caused by the thickness,
size and flap shape of the envelopes you
are using.
Chapter 2
24
Labels 2
The machine will print on most types of labels
designed for use with a laser machine. Labels
should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based
since this material is more stable at the high
temperatures in the fuser unit. Adhesives
should not come in contact with any part of
the machine, because the label stock may
stick to the drum unit or rollers and cause
jams and print quality problems. No adhesive
should be exposed between the labels.
Labels should be arranged so that they cover
the entire length and width of the sheet. Using
labels with spaces may result in labels
peeling off and causing serious jams or print
problems.
All labels used in this machine must be able
to withstand a temperature of 200 C for a
period of 0.1 seconds.
Labels can only be fed through the MP tray.
Types of labels to avoid 2
Do not use labels that are damaged, curled,
wrinkled or an unusual shape.
Important
• DO NOT feed part used label sheets. The
exposed carrier sheet will damage your
machine.
• Label sheets should not exceed the paper
weight specifications described in this
User’s Guide. Labels exceeding this
specification may not feed or print
correctly and may cause damage to your
machine.
• DO NOT reuse or insert labels that have
previously been used or are missing a few
labels on the sheet.

If you are connecting the machine to a line
that features a PBX or ISDN to send and
receive faxes, it is necessary to change the
Telephone Line Type accordingly by
completing the following steps. If you are
using a line that features a PBX, you can set
your machine so that it always accesses the
outside line (using the prefix you entered), or
accesses the outside line when Tel/R is
pressed.

e Do one of the following:
If you chose ISDN or Normal, go to
step i.
If you chose PBX, go to step f.
f Press On or Always.
Note
• If you choose On, pressing Tel/R will let

and go to step h.
If you do not want to change the
current prefix number, go to step i.
h Enter the prefix number (up to 5 digits)
on the dial pad.
Press OK.
Note
You can use the numbers and symbols 0
to 9, #, l and !. (You cannot use ! with any
other numbers and symbols.)
i Press Stop/Exit.
PBX and TRANSFER 7
The machine is initially set to Normal, which
lets the machine connect to a standard PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network) line.
However, many offices use a central
telephone system or Private Branch
Exchange (PBX). Your machine can be
connected to most types of PBX. The
machine’s recall feature supports timed break
recall only (TBR). TBR will work with most
PBX systems allowing you to gain access to
an outside line, or transfer calls to another
extension. The feature works when Tel/R is
pressed.
Telephone and external devices 7

7
Connecting an external
TAD 7
You can connect an external Telephone
Answering Device (TAD) to the same line as
your machine. When the TAD answers a call,
your machine will “listen” for the CNG (fax
calling) tones sent by a sending fax machine.
If it hears them it will take over the call and
receive the fax. If it does not hear them, it will
let your TAD take a voice message and the
display will show Telephone.
The external TAD must answer within four
rings (we recommend you set it to two rings).
This is because your machine cannot hear
the CNG tones until the external TAD has
picked up the call. The sending machine will
send CNG tones for only eight to ten seconds
longer. We do not recommend using the toll
saver feature on your external TAD if it needs
more than four rings to activate it.
Note
If you have problems receiving faxes,
reduce the ring delay setting on your
external TAD.
Connections 7
The external TAD must be connected as
shown in the illustration below.
1TAD
a Set your external TAD to one or two
rings. (The machine’s Ring Delay
setting does not apply.)
b Record the outgoing message on your
external TAD.
c Set the TAD to answer calls.
d Set the Receive Mode on your machine
to External TAD. (See Choosing the
receive mode uu page 31.)

(Example for U.K.)
Chapter 7

Recording an outgoing
message (OGM) 7
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. This allows
your machine time to listen for fax tones.
b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c End your 20-second message by giving
your Remote Activation code for people
sending manual faxes. For example:
“After the beep, leave a message or
press l51 and Start to send a fax.”
Note
• You need to turn the Remote Codes
setting to On to use the Fax Activation
Code l51. (See Using Remote Codes
uu page 42.)
• We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5 second silence because the
machine cannot hear fax tones over a loud
voice. You may try leaving out this pause,
but if your machine has trouble receiving,
then you should re-record the OGM to
include it.
Multi-line connections (PBX) 7
We suggest you ask the company who
installed your PBX to connect your machine.
If you have a multi line system we suggest
you ask the installer to connect the unit to the
last line on the system. This prevents the
machine being activated each time the
system receives telephone calls. If all
incoming calls will be answered by a
switchboard operator we recommend that
you set the Receive Mode to Manual.
We cannot guarantee that your machine will
operate correctly under all circumstances
when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties
with sending or receiving faxes should be
reported first to the company who handles
your PBX.
External and extension
telephones 7
Note
You need to turn the Remote Codes
setting to on to use the Remote Activation
Code l51 and Remote Deactivation Code
#51. (See Using Remote Codes
uu page 42.)
Connecting an external or
extension telephone 7
You can connect a separate telephone
directly to your machine as shown in the
diagram below.

When you are using an external telephone,
the LCD shows Telephone.

Operation from external or
extension telephones 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension
telephone, or an external telephone that is
correctly connected to the machine through
the T-piece connection, you can make your
machine take the call by using the Remote
Activation code. When you press the Remote
Activation code l51 the machine starts to
receive the fax.
If you answer a call and no one is on
the line: 7
You should assume that you’re receiving a
manual fax.
Press l51 and wait for the chirp or until the
LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.
Note
You can also use the Fax Detect feature to
make your machine automatically take the
call. (See Fax Detect uu page 35.)
For Fax/Tel mode only 7
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time (fast double-ringing) to
alert you to pick up a voice call.
Lift the external telephone’s handset, and
then press Tel/R to answer.
If you are at an extension telephone, you will
need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring
Time and then press #51 between the fast
double-rings. If no one is on the line, or if
someone wants to send you a fax, send the
call back to the machine by pressing l51.
Using extension telephones
(U.K. only) 7
Your premises may already be wired with
parallel extension telephones (those
connected to sockets in other rooms in the
building), or perhaps you intend to add
extension telephones to your line. While the
simplest arrangement is a parallel
connection, there are some reasons why this
arrangement may cause problems.
The most common problem, is someone
picking up an extension telephone while the
machine is trying to send a fax.
Such problems can easily be eliminated, if
you arrange modification of your extension
wiring circuit, such that extension devices are
connected “downstream” of your machine, in
a master/slave configuration (see figure 2). In
such a configuration, this machine can
always detect whether a telephone is in use,
so it will not attempt to seize the line during
that time. This is known as “telephone
off-hook detection”.
The inadvisable configuration is shown in
figure 1, and the recommended master/slave
configuration is shown in figure 2.
This new connection configuration can be
arranged by contacting BT, Kingston upon
Hull Telecommunications, your PBX
maintainer or a qualified telephone
installation company as appropriate. Simply
explained, the extension telephone circuit
should be terminated on a normal modular
plug (BT 431A style), which in turn should be
inserted into the modular socket of the white
“T”-shaped connector provided as part of the
line cord assembly.

These phones are now connected as external
devices as shown on page 40, because they
are connected to the fax machine via the
T-connector.
Using a non-Brother cordless
external handset 7
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is
connected to the telephone line cord (uu
page 40) and you typically carry the cordless
handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer
calls during the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Tel/R to transfer the call to the cordless
handset.
Using Remote Codes 7
Remote Activation Code 7
If you answer a fax call on an external or
extension telephone, you can tell your
machine to receive it by pressing the Remote
Activation Code l51. Wait for the chirping
sounds then replace the handset. (See Fax
Detect uu page 35.) Your caller will have to
press start to send the fax.
If you answer a fax call at the external
telephone, you can make the machine
receive the fax by pressing Start and then
press Receive.
Remote Deactivation Code 7
If you receive a voice call and the machine is
in F/T mode, it will start to sound the F/T ring
(fast double-ring) after the initial ring delay. If
you pick up the call on an extension
telephone you can turn the F/T ring off by
pressing #51 (make sure you press this
between the rings).
If the machine answers a voice call and fast
double-rings for you to take over, you can
take the call at the external telephone by
pressing Tel/R.

Important
• Unpack the toner cartridge just before you
put it in the machine. If a toner cartridge is
left unpacked for a long time, the toner life
will be shortened.
• If an unpacked drum unit is put in direct
sunlight or room light, the unit may be

• Brother machines are designed to work
with toner of a particular specification and
will work to a level of optimum
performance when used with Brother
Original toner cartridges. Brother cannot
guarantee this optimum performance if
toner or toner cartridges of other
specifications are used. The machine may
not detect toner or toner cartridges of
other specifications correctly but may
instead detect such items as standard
yield toner cartridges. Brother does not
therefore recommend the use of
cartridges other than Brother Original
cartridges with this machine, or the
refilling of empty cartridges with toner from
other sources. If damage is caused to the
drum unit or other parts of this machine as
a result of the use of toner or toner
cartridges other than Brother Original
products due to the incompatibility or lack
of suitability of those products with this
machine, any repairs required as a result
may not be covered by the warranty.

Receiving Faxes
Difficulties Suggestions
Cannot receive a fax. Check all line cord connections. Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged into
the telephone wall socket and the LINE socket of the machine. If you subscribe to
DSL or VoIP services, please contact your service provider for connection
instructions.
Make sure the machine is in the correct Receive Mode. This is determined by the
external devices and telephone subscriber services you have on the same line as
the Brother machine.
See Receive Mode settings uu page 34.
If you have a dedicated fax line and want your Brother machine to
automatically answer all incoming faxes, you should select Fax Only mode.
If your Brother machine shares a line with an external answering machine, you
should select the External TAD mode. In External TAD mode, your
Brother machine will automatically receive incoming faxes and voice callers
will be able to leave a message on your answering machine.
If your Brother machine shares a line with other telephones and you want it to
automatically answer all incoming faxes, you should select the Fax/Tel
mode. In Fax/Tel mode, your Brother machine will automatically receive
faxes and produce a fast double-ring to alert you to answer voice calls.
If you do not want your Brother machine to automatically answer any incoming
faxes, you should select the Manual mode. In Manual mode, you must
answer every incoming call and activate the machine to receive faxes.
Another device or service at your location may be answering the call before your
Brother machine answers. To test this, lower the ring delay setting:
If the answer mode is set to Fax Only or Fax/Tel, reduce the ring delay to
1 ring.
See Ring Delay uu page 34.
If the answer mode is set to External TAD, reduce the number of rings
programmed on your answering machine to 2.
If the answer mode is set to Manual, DO NOT adjust the ring delay setting.
Have someone send you a test fax:
If you received the test fax successfully, your machine is operating correctly.
Remember to reset your ring delay or answering machine setting back to your
original setting. If receiving problems recur after resetting the ring delay, then
a person, device, or subscriber service is answering the fax call before the
machine has a chance to answer.
If you were not able to receive the fax, then another device or subscriber
service may be interfering with your fax reception or there may be a problem
with your fax line.

Cannot receive a fax.
(continued)
If you are using a telephone answering machine (External TAD mode) on the

End your outgoing message with your Remote Activation Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or
press l51 and Start to send a fax.”
4 Set your answering machine to answer calls.
5 Set your Brother machine’s Receive Mode to External TAD.

Handling incoming calls
Difficulties Suggestions
The machine ‘Hears’ a voice as a
CNG Tone.
If Fax Detect is set to On, your machine is more sensitive to sounds. It may
mistakenly interpret certain voices or music on the line as a fax machine calling
and respond with fax receiving tones. Deactivate the machine by pressing
Stop/Exit. Try avoiding this problem by turning Fax Detect to Off.
See Fax Detect uu page 35.
Sending a Fax Call to the machine. If you answered on an external or extension telephone, press your Remote
Activation Code (default setting is l51). When your machine answers, hang up.
Custom features on a single line. If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, Caller ID, Voice Mail, an
answering machine, an alarm system or other custom feature on a single
telephone line with your machine, it may create a problem sending or receiving
faxes.
For Example: If you subscribe to Call Waiting or some other custom service and
its signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or receiving a fax,
the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the faxes. Brother’s ECM (Error
Correction Mode) feature should help overcome this problem. This condition is
related to the telephone system industry and is common to all devices that send
and receive information on a single, shared line with custom features. If avoiding
a slight interruption is crucial to your business, a separate line with no custom
features is recommended.
